1.We partnered with Elle Magazine and P&G to drive new clients into the area. This was an annual Elle event hosted in a different venue each year. It's a tremendous honor to be part of an event such as this. Elle Magazine sent out hundreds of Evites to their local subscribers in an effort to share in a red carpet meet and greet at the Richard Scott Salon and Day Spa at 15-17 South Moger Avenue in Mt. Kisco. We offered consultations, tours of the grand establishment, refreshments and music, as we introduced our business to new clients and new services to our current clients. There were 150 plus in attendance and the evening was a true success.

2. We celebrated the milestone achievement of our 10 year anniversary in the town of Mt. Kisco. Our staff, friends and clients danced the night away in our 7000 sq. ft salon.

3. We felt that dedicating the night to a charitable cause would make it more rewarding.

I had the pleasure and privilege of attending the Hairdressers Helping Hairdressers (HHH) benefit for fellow beauty professionals impacted by Hurricane Sandy, on December 9 at Canoe Studios in New York City. My partner Joseph Norris, salon staff and I have been so greatly moved by the show of unified support at the event and decided to involve our salon and our Mount Kisco community in doing something that will assist the efforts to help hairdressers that have lost their homes and businesses.

There are many hairdressers that have lost everything and every dime we can raise towards helping out and giving them a new start.

The Disaster Relief Fund is particularly dear to us at Richard Scott as we are no strangers to the devastating effects of disaster. In 2007, our business was very nearly wiped out of existence after an unfortunate fire but thankfully we have been able to rebuild it. Since that difficult time in our history we have moved from strength to strength and are an important fixture in the village of Mount Kisco, NY.

We are hoping to be able to help others achieve the same progressive recovery and not only provide financial assistance through fund-raising but moral support and reassurance. For those affected by devastation the horizon can appear dark and the future bleak. It can be helpful to hear from those that have gone through the same despair that survival is more than possible. Richard Scott is thriving now and so can others.

We were happy to announce that we raised $4000.00 in donations and our site to continue accepting donations on line will be open for the next year. You can still donate by following this link below.
